Using hydrogen peroxide dip to get rid of BBA algae on driftwood

Hi, I'd like to use hydrogen peroxide to get rid of the BBA algae on my driftwood. Instead of dosing directing in the tank, I'd like to prepare a dip in a bucket and dip my driftwood in there.

Any advice on concentration to aim for (e.g., assuming I buy 3% hydrogen peroxide, how much of this per litre of water), and how long to dip the driftwood in there in order for this exercise to be effective.

Cheers

Just use a 20% bleach solution...dip for around 60 secs...BBA is gone
